About: Dogs have been a part of my life for many years. I have owned dogs for over 30 years and I have taken care of them from puppy stage to their senior years. We will treat your fur babies like family in our loving home. I work from home and will be able to take care of their needs. I have 2 medium dogs that are friendly and love to play, lounge, and keep your dog company. I am home most of the time and will be with your pet. I have a fenced backyard enough room for walking, playing and running. Indoor, I will be with them most of the time.
“Very nice and extremely attentive and trustworthy! And a good cat person. It took several days for my cat to warm up to my aunt when she pet sat, but Laura hit it off with her right away.”
“Leaving Zoe behind is never easy—she’s not just a pet, she’s family. It’s always stressful trying to find the right person to not only care for her, but also to trust in your home. The overthinking can be overwhelming at times. But from the moment I connected with Cyerra, I felt a sense of comfort and trust that’s so rare to find. Her warmth, patience, and genuine love for animals shined through immediately. She treated Zoe with the same tenderness and attention I would, and that means everything to me. The thoughtful updates, sweet photos, and seeing Zoe so relaxed and happy made all the difference. Cyerra, thank you for loving her like your own. You are truly a gem.”
“We are very appreciative of Bonnie. She not only reliable, she is very loving to our kitty. Our Kitty loves her, too! ( And she is usually shy with unfamiliar people) Thank you, Bonnie for being so wonderful!!”
“Yumi and Cody were great! They were very good at communicating, they took great care of my cats! They were great at spending time with them and playing with them. Both my cats warmed up to them very quickly. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend them! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻”
About: Hi! My name is Lin, and I’m a pet sitter with a special focus on cats and small pets I currently have two cats of my own, one senior cat and one younger kitten, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I understand that every cat adjusts differently in a new environment, and I always try to create a calm, low stress space where they can feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. I have experience with shy cats, affectionate cats, high energy kittens, and pets that need a little extra patience or monitoring. I pay close attention to eating habits, litter box changes, behavior, and overall comfort during their stay. Our home is clean, quiet, and pet friendly, and I always make sure pets have their own safe space if they need time alone. I also send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and truly enjoy getting to know their personalities 😊 I work during the day from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, but I maintain a structured routine to ensure pets are well cared for before and after work. In the mornings, I provide feeding, cleaning, and check-ins, and in the afternoons and evenings I dedicate time for play, interaction, and monitoring. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I also have a home monitoring system to check on pets while I’m away, ensuring they remain safe and comfortable throughout the day. I provide a clean, quiet, and secure home environment that is ideal for both cats and small dogs. My home is a house in a safe and peaceful neighborhood, with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time for dogs. I have two cats of my own — one calm and very friendly, and one playful — both are well-socialized and non-aggressive. I also have a separate room available for safe and gradual introductions or full separation if needed. All windows are secured with screens, and pets are always kept in a controlled and safe indoor environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, litter box care, and behavior monitoring. I provide daily photo and video updates for peace of mind, and I only accept a limited number of pets (maximum of 3 at a time) to ensure each pet receives proper attention and care.
“Danielle was so awesome with my babies! I have 2 bunnies and a cat and she cared for all of them like they were her own! I loved the photos and the updates. My animals loved her too!! Will be booking again!”
About: As a doctoral student in clinical psychology, I am responsible, dependable, and attentive to details. Combined with my 13 years of pet care experience, I provide reliable care that pet owners can trust. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, ensuring they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I am currently on summer break from school and have loads of free time and flexibility! I also have no problem staying with the pet for the whole time if needed. I have a condo that has plenty of space, and it has both an upstairs and a downstairs. I have space to crate animals if needed, too.
About: Hi! I’m Ruth ✨ I’ve been around dogs my whole life and absolutely love caring for them. Whether it’s going on walks, playing fetch, or keeping them company, I always make sure each pup feels loved and happy. I enjoy staying active and giving dogs the energy and attention they deserve while you’re away! 🐶💛 I’m mainly available for afternoon or evening walks, and sometimes Sunday mornings too! My schedule is flexible, so I can usually adjust if you need a specific time. When caring for pets in their home, I always follow the owner’s routine and any special instructions to keep things consistent. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away keeping their space clean, their schedule on track, and their tail wagging. 🐾

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have taken care of dogs from all shapes and sizes. I started being paid to care for my families dogs since I was 10! I have experience cleaning, walking, feeding, and playing with dogs. Willing to accommodate any specific needs for doggies. I genuinely love getting to know dogs and their individual personalities and preferences. I know how to make dogs and their owners comfortable and happy. I’m very good at communicating, maybe even a little too much. So, I will always keep owners updated at all times. As a recent college graduate, I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m available most weekdays and some weekends, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods of time. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priorities. I will carefully follow any routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special requests to make sure your pet feels safe and cared for. I also believe communication is very important, so I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. I will keep your home clean, respect your space, and create a calm and loving environment for your pet.
About: I've always grown up having dog. Our first was a greyhound (named Moonlight) rescued from the racetracks. Around age 9 we got another dog a Chihuahua--pekingese mix (named Mercury). In my twenties I adopted a bichon-frise mixed named Apollo and a few years later an orange tabby cat named Oogie. After moving to Upland from Los Angeles I am looking to restablish myself as a pet care taker. I have a natural way with animals, making them very comfortable in my care.
About: I have experience with dogs, cats, bunnies. Large dogs are welcome and have had 2 massives of my own and large Rottweilers and also puppies Please reach out I’ll attend care when I’m not flying for work. I’ve been a flight attendant many years! And I have lots of days off. I have experience with large and small breeds. Your dog will be very happy around me! I’ve learned to let my dogs teach me what the want. I can figure it when all they need is just a hug. No treat or walk, just a simple hug or attention. You can put your trust in me while you are away.

Danielle was absolutely amazing! She took care of our 2 dogs when we were out of town. She dropped by multiple times to check on them, play with them, walk them, feed them, and she left our home super tidy! She allowed us to travel completely as ease and she took awesome care of my babies. I’ve already rebooked with her and 10/10 would recommend!
Amanda was the best! She was communicative and so kind! Your animal babies and homes are in great hands with her. This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t recommend Amanda enough! She gave my kitty the best care and love while I was away. She’s amazing.
Destiny is the best pet sitter! She has watched our kitty cats multiple times and she is excellent taking care of our fur babies! She keeps in touch with pictures and videos for each visit so we know our babies are doing great! If you are looking for a sitter for your pet she is awesome!
Definitely an animal person! Skyla and Delilah were so lucky to have Kayla come visit while we were out of town. I feel she treated my kitties, as well as the stray cats in the neighborhood, as if they were her own. (She also got fantastic pictures!) She made me feel confident leaving them in her care right off the bat. She was open to meeting in person and seemed very flexible with her schedule. Highly recommend!! 🙂😺😺
